App tries to load in a class through its string name using
forName method in class Class,
findSystemClass method in class ClassLoader,
loadClass method in class ClassLoader
but no definition for the class with the specified name could be found.

Unless you are involved in dynamic class loading and using the Java Reflection API, chances are that the ClassNotFoundException error you are getting is not from your application code but from a referencing API.
